Ms Heard, This is either incomplete or deliberately evasive. North Carolina General Statue 160A-168 specifically points out information you have neglected to include. This would include sections (b) (3), (b) (4), (b) (9), (b) (10) and (b) (11). You stated all other items are confidential. Are you claiming these items are confidential or is there other reasoning behind? The statute you’ve quoted as is the very one I am pointing out requires the release of this information. Also, I am still attempting to get copies of the Fuelman/Fleet One cards usage for purchases in South Carolina. I would like credit card receipts or billing statements, not an Excel spreadsheet made in the office which can list, or omit, anything from the original either deliberately or through oversight. The originals obviously are available for the information to have been taken off and placed on spreadsheets. This is the third time I have requested this. The first request I was given Chief Collin’s credit card receipts (oddly, the originals, not a spreadsheet for this) I can understand that perhaps my request was misunderstood to be for this card. The second was very clearly for the Fleetone/ Fuelman card. I find it unusual the original credit card use, which would be far larger than the Fleetone use, was delivered as copies of the card receipts but the Fleetone is an Excel spreadsheet. Thank you for your assistance,

Mr. Lane,
Attached please find information regarding your public records request dated July 9. Regarding your request for copies of personnel files, North Carolina General Statue 160A-168 identifies very specific information about employees, or former employees, that is deemed public. All other items are confidential. The information that is public is included as an attachment to this email. Regarding your request for the contract for Rory Collins for the position of Police Chief, no such contract exists. Also attached is a copy of the billing records for Chief Collins’ Fuelman/Fleet One credit card charges.
Thank you,
Myra Heard
